falling domes on my bread?

I have baked whole grain breads before with perfect loves, all of a sudden my loves fall? the dome falls after about 15-20 min. of baking? I have tried to change things but it happens all the time now?

adding yeast. You also might want to reduce the yeast amount. Another thing to check into is a shaping after the first proof degassing the dough at the same time you spread it out to roll up into a loaf shape. With all that yeast and warmth, a second rise might solve the problems.

I will try and let it rise 2 times, The recipe calls for instantly forming loves as soon as the kneeding ends, and 1 rise. It makes sense about the excissive gas under the top crust. Thank you all for your expert input. I will be back, Dick
